When I weighed them this morning, I couldn't keep them balanced on the scale, had to set them on a roll of tape to get them to quit rolling away. Bit early to say for sure, but I'm hoping that was the chicks wiggling around inside because I was moving the eggs. If what I read is right, 10-15 more days and they should begin to respond to sounds.

I also increased the humidity, it's now at about 45%, this should push them back up into their projected weight loss then I can bump it back down to 35% next week and keep it there till they hatch. If they kept to the weight loss they were getting over this week they'd be at 15 and 16% loss by hatch, I can do better for em though.

we've decided against the silkie and polish since they're high maintenance and useless

anybody know any other good breeds to go with a jersey giant and ameracuana

Silkies are really only useful when you're breeding chickens without an incubator, they're very broody and don't lay often, so they'll hatch eggs that don't even belong to them.

Plymouth Rocks are good layers and fairly docile.
Orpingtons are good too, they lay decent sized eggs and are also docile.
Rhode Island Reds lay very well too but they're aggressive and tend to rule the roost and even the hens have spurs.
I have an Araucana too but she stopped laying because she's so old, she's also the one in charge though and being so docile she keeps the others in line without tearing them apart and will even give the Rhode Island Red a peck on the head when she gets too worked up and starts beating on the others.

I highly recommend Corgis, I've had her for two days now and shes responds to her name most of the time, goes to the bathroom on peepads, and she knows I'm her momma. Really smart dog and shes not even 8 weeks old!

My Emu eggs are both wiggling now, I noticed one of them wiggle 3 days ago while I was looking in to check the water level and temperature. They'll both wiggle when I whistle to them now. ~14 days left till the hatch, give or take a day or two after.

Foxes are non-domesticated pets and as such, you'll have to check your local laws to see if you're
even allowed to own a Fox. You usually need a license. Also, IRRC There's no proper rabies vaccine
for Foxes which is part of why they'v not been domesticated.

It'll be difficult to find one to buy, you might be able to adopt/volunteer to raise one if it's been abandoned or injured, but it'll depend on your local territory/state laws.

After you find out if you are even able to own one, then you should take a lot of consideration whether or not you are ready for that. Foxes like to mark their territory and smell very musky. They aren't domesticated so training them not to do so will be difficult at best. They are smart animals but are wild animals and as such, will prove pretty difficult to train.

Some breeds, like the Fennec Fox, are more suitable to others for living in a domestic environment though.

Just remember that Foxes will be difficult pets to own. They are not domesticated and are very active. You can probaly tell from the video that they are pretty active, and very curious. However, don't let that turn you off.
If you're dedicated to taking care of the pet and giving it a good home, then definitely consider it. Especially if you adopt one that needs a home, you will be giving a home to an animal that needs it, especially if you get one from a home
that adopted a Fox because it was 'cute' and it turned out to be too much work for them.

I did my work experience at the animal unit in college a few weeks ago, as part of my animal care course. Here's some of the animals I looked after. Whilst they are not my pets, the lecturers say we should treat them as though they are.

Asian forest scorpion: She happened to be out during feeding time, and you can just about see the cricket I gave her. She simply crushed it in her claws and took it in her chelicerae. Afterwards, she got a bit lairy and raised her tail so that I couldn't replace her water. So I picked her up and moved her.

Madagascan day gecko: Had to use a long pair of metal tweezers to give them their locusts. The one pictured wasn't interested, although another took it and ran off.

Leopard gecko: I like these. I was meant to be feeding them, but being nocturnal not many of them were interested in their food.

Baby guinea pig: Not really exotic, but I had to put it there anyway. There are eight babies in total, and they were accidentally conceived when a male was put in the wrong cage (With his mother and sister ) and impregnated the occupants. They're a few weeks old now.The first litter. The adult on the left had her litter several days after this was taken.
